This came out a bit more old-school than I intended. And a lot bigger (it
sort of strains the boundaries of whooshability!). It was originally going to
be an all-silver spaceship like a Naboo starship, but I changed my mind - and
conserved the lions’ share of the silver elements for another spaceship.
The landing gear is a bit fugly, but it is sturdy and extremely compact...
so I left it as-is.

Man..is that ever ‘out there’. To be honest, when I first saw it in the
thumbnail I recoiled a little bit due to the lime green....truly one of the
hardest colours for me to get my head around. A closer look however reveals
that the spire formations on it seem to work with the outlandish colour scheme.
The Bionicle/Racer bits in the engine cowling look excellent.
The only criticism I would have is the interior. For some reason, the ‘plain’
colours of black/red/gray don’t seem to fit the exterior. I would almost expect
to see an all white interior with trans highlights or something. A minor
personal taste.
Innovative as always Paul.
